Lets's calculate LCM of 376,6860
2 | 376, 6860 |
2 | 188, 3430 |
94, 1715 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 94 x 1715 = 644840
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/644840
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5889/376,8292/6860 is 3/644840
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 376,6860 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(376,6860) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(376,6860) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(376,6860) = ( 376 × 6860 ) / 4
LCM(376,6860) = 2579360 / 4
LCM(376,6860) = 644840
